I'm not defending them, but it does not look good if you don't have requirements, run their credit and then tell them you don't like their score.If they think you are violating fair housing laws, they should also not take your business.As far as representing both sides, did you agree to this in your listing agreement?

They still would have the ability to call foul on you, which you would have to defend yourself.

I love Queens and I love New York but some things here are so backwards.It is WILD to look the other way from negative behavior and punish those who defend themselves and their possessions.
